DHAKA, Bangladesh (AP) — A fire gutted a beach resort in
southeastern Bangladesh on Saturday, killing 10 people and
injuring four, an official said.
The fire broke out at Tuptup Resto and Resort at Inani in Cox’s
Bazar district, a popular destination for domestic tourists,
Syed Mohammad Morshed Hossain, deputy assistant director of Fire
Service and Civil Defense in the district, said. The resort is
located near the Bay of Bengal.
The blaze erupted in the morning and quickly spread through the
three-story wooden resort, he said. Children were among the
dead, he said, without giving details.
It wasn't immediately clear what caused the fire.
